SECAD is delighted to announce that we have been selected as an Assistance Service Provider (ASP) for the EuroCluster Rural Tourism Project, funded under the European COSME Programme.

Under this project, we are currently encouraging applications from rural tourism accommodation SMEs with 10 employees or less (FTE) to work with during the upcoming winter/spring period. A package of mentoring and advisory supports, valued at c. €5000 will be provided to each SME to help improve your business offering in the areas of:

  1. digital marketing
  2. sustainability & biodiversity
  3. integrating with the local community
  4. promoting the nearby heritage and cultural attractions.

Further information on the open call for SMEs and an online application form can be found at EuroCluster Rural Tourism Calls
